For “Born” JUN 1896 of Kate Fawdry

"Births Jun 1896; FAWDRY, Kate; Aston; 6d; 447"

FreeBMD birth index; the only Kate Fawdry registered nationally 1896-1898. Registers her birth about a year earlier than the tree's recorded 1897 (a birth in 1897 cannot register in the Jun quarter of 1896); see accompanying person.update. Aston was the registration district covering Sutton Coldfield in this period.

For “Died” JAN 1904 of George Manning

George MANNING | 1904 Mar | 78 | Wellington Som. | vol 5c p.211

FreeBMD death index row: name | quarter | age | district | volume/page. Retrieved 2026-09-04. Age 78 in Jan–Mar 1904 fits a 16 Dec 1825 birth. Wellington (Somerset) registration district contained Milverton (his 1901 residence) and Devon border parishes such as Hemyock and Culmstock, so the tree's 'Devon' is not contradicted.

GRO death index row (post-1969 form): Name | reg quarter | district | DOB | vol/page. DOB '30JE1898' is an exact match (day+month) to the tree's birth_date 30 JUN 1898. The tree's only prior death citation (id 6671, source 1229) has a blank death-place field; this supplies the missing district with a hard identity match.

For “Died” JUN 1917 of Stephen Maple

Stephen Maple | 1917 Jun | Blean | vol 2a p.1245 | age 84

FreeBMD death index row; age 84 at a Jun 1917 death implies a birth about 1832/33, matching this person's own recorded 1831 birth year. Distinguishes this Stephen Maple (son of William Maple #5137 x Miriam Williams) from Stephen Maple #5120 (son of James Maple, died 1863 at Aldershot - see companion citation).

For “Born” 7 FEB 1876 of Sydney Henry Staines

Sydney Henry STAINES | 1876 Mar | Hull | vol 9d p.281

Given-name triple 'Sydney Henry' is distinctive; district 'Hull' matches the tree's birthplace 'Kingston upon Hull' exactly. A Mar-quarter 1876 registration is consistent with a 7 Feb 1876 birth (same-quarter registration was normal); the index gives only the quarter and district, not the day, so this corroborates rather than proves the exact date.

Jack Hudson 1919 Jun Blofield Tills vol 4b p.259

FreeBMD transcription of the GRO birth index; the mother's-maiden-surname column reads Tills. This is the only Hudson x Tills birth registered 1919-1935, and matches Robert Hudson x Agnes L Tills, married Lincoln district September quarter 1918.

Retrieved 2026-09-17 by a deaths search on surname Charles, given name George, 1875-1875, which returns three rows: Monmouth age 47, W. Derby age 45, and this one at Chepstow age 26. Chepstow is the death place already recorded on this event, and age 26 matches the recorded birth of Jun 1849 (already cited to the Monmouth GRO birth index, citation 49781). The index gives quarter only (Jul-Sep), consistent with but not proving the recorded month of July.

"Births Jun 1866; STRIBLING, Alice; Thetford; 4b; 391"

FreeBMD birth index row, single exact match for this name/place/period; supplies the first primary citation on this birth event (Alice's existing citations are Ancestry Public Member Tree pointers to her married identity, attached at person level, not this event). No marriage register entry for a 'Mary Stribling' near Thetford/Mildenhall 1845-1866 was found in FreeBMD; consistent with no father named on the register -- Shape 1.

For “Died” MAR 1855 of William Kidman

William Kidman | 1855 Mar | Caxton | vol 3b p.361

FreeBMD death index row as rendered (name | quarter/year | registration district | volume/page reference), searched directly this session. Caxton is the registration district covering Croxton and Caldecote, this man's known residence in the 1841 and 1851 censuses; a same-quarter same-name entry at Linton (a different, unrelated Cambridgeshire district) is excluded. No age is carried pre-1866, so this corroborates the existing GEDCOM death quarter/year by place rather than uniquely identifying by age.

FreeBMD death index row (name/quarter-year/district/volume-page in that column order). Farnham registration district covered Aldershot, Hampshire at this date, matching this person's own recorded death place and quarter exactly. Distinguishes this Stephen Maple (son of James Maple x Elizabeth Jarvis) from Stephen Maple #5124 (son of William Maple x Miriam Williams, died 1917 Blean - see companion citation) and from a third, unrelated Stephen Maple death registered the same quarter in Bridge, Kent (vol 2a p.365) - Bridge is the district covering Littlebourne, where three separate Stephen Maple deaths (1858/1863/1873) are registered, only one of which is anybody in this family (see citation on person #5122).

Retrieved 2026-08-29 by a births search on surname Charles, given name John, 1850-1853, which returns 29 rows across England and Wales; this is the only one whose given names begin John E, and Rugby is the district in which this couple registered Sarah Ann Charles in March 1849 (vol 16 p. 538). Pre-1911 birth index rows name no parents, so this row identifies the registration, not the parentage.

Margaret Ann DAVIS | 1860 Mar | Tynemouth | vol 10b p.158

FreeBMD transcription of the GRO birth index, mirroring citation 53728 on the person. Earsdon and Seaton Delaval lie in the Tynemouth registration district. Her parents married in that district in the June quarter of 1859, which puts a first child in the March quarter of 1860 exactly where this registration is and strengthens the identification made by elimination against the September-quarter 1859 candidate.

Groom and bride share the reference, which is the civil registration of the Glastonbury wedding: Glastonbury lies in Wells registration district and 15 October 1864 falls in the December quarter. Thomas is the ONLY Dodkins marriage registered in England and Wales in 1864-65, and Fanny Elizabeth the only Stacey bride of those forenames; the other three Fanny Staceys of 1865 are at Doncaster, Torrington and Lambeth.

For “Died” 1857 of Mary Elizabeth Boulden

Mary Dodkin | 1857 Jun | Royston | vol 3a p.128

FreeBMD transcription of the GRO death index; columns name / quarter / registration district / volume and page. The June quarter 1857 registration matches the burial of 12 May 1857 at Barkway, which lies in Royston district. FreeBMD carries no age at death before 1866, so the age of 47 comes from the burial register, not from this row.

For Samuel Bowler & Mary Ann McKay

Mary Ann McKAY | 1872 Dec | Canterbury | vol 2a p.1202a

GRO marriage index, bride's row: the only Mary Ann McKay or Mackay married at Canterbury between 1865 and 1878. Same district and quarter as the groom's row, but FreeBMD renders the page as "1202a" against his "1202" - normally the mark of a second index copy transcribed for the same page, though I could not confirm that, so both rows are cited at quality 2 rather than 3. The pairing rests on there being exactly one Samuel Bowler and exactly one Mary Ann McKay married in Canterbury district in that whole period, and on the tree already holding them as a couple whose children are registered at Canterbury from 1877.

For Samuel Finch & Susannah Wordley

Samuel FINCH 1844 Sep Strand vol 1 p.368 || Susannah WORDLEY 1844 Sep Strand vol 1 p.368

Two FreeBMD marriage-index rows quoted in the index's column order (Name | Date | District | Reference) and separated by ||. They share a volume and page, which in the GRO index is how the two parties to one marriage are linked. Searched separately: FINCH with spouse surname WORDLEY 1837-1850 returns this row alone, and WORDLEY 1844-1845 returns seven rows of which only this one is at Strand. Their eldest child Harriet Mary Grimwood Finch was registered in the same district three quarters later.
